Ruth tries to take her relationship with Arthur to a new level but fails horribly which is rather amusing to watch. Nate has Maya all for himself as Lisa leaves for a few days after they have reconciled last episode. As happy as Nate is to spend some quality time with Maya at first, he starts to freak out when he isn't able to contact Lisa.

Keith and David go to Keith's aunt's funeral and Keith sees that his father has changed a lot, spoiling Taylor and not treating her bad like he used to treat Karla and Keith when they were young. There is a tender moment between Keith and David as well as his father.

Meanwhile, things aren't going as well for Claire and Russell after he has a meltdown in class. Afterwards, Russell reveals something rather unpleasant to Claire which changes everything between the two art students.

Rico and Vanessa go to dancing class and she seems very excited after she was rather depressed in the past few episodes. But there are complications.

Billy and Brenda watch a video of "Nathaniel and Isabel" which upsets Billy as it is totally different from the book. This leads to a heart-to-heart between the siblings that goes kind of wrong ...

Excellently written, like always. And it is true, in this episode you really get the impression that nothing is stable, everything is due to change, everybody could leave at any given time.
